Question:
What is the difference between a game model bat and a game used bat?

Answer:
In both cases, each bat was manufactured specifically for game use. The bat is produced to the individual player's specifications like length, weight, style, etc. If the bat is not prepared for game use (pine tar, handle tape, grooving, etc.) and does not show at least some sign of actual game use, it is not considered an actual game used bat. Both have great value since much of the value given to a bat comes from the fact that it was ordered for a certain player and is a professional model bat. In order for the bat to achieve a high-grade and more market value, game usage and distinct player characteristics must be present.
